I say, let her be the Special Advisor to PMX!

Nurul Izzah has a Bachelor's degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Universiti Tenaga Nasional, and a Master's degree from the School for Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University studying International Relations, specializing in Southeast Asia Studies. Her past political and advocacy work eminently qualifies her for a position that transcends ministries, federal agencies, and partisan politics.

DSAI....may I be so bold as to suggest that Nurul Izzah be appointed as Special Advisor to PMX. This way, she will have a wider role and can go to any ministries, any federal agencies, to do any work directed by you. In that position and role, Nurul will also be accorded that special status to be able to assist you in your engagements domestically and abroad.

Be a bold PM and not be sensitive to the self-serving accusations of cronyism and nepotism hurled at you by those lesser mortals who are unable to see beyond their own vested political and financial gains. Cronyism and nepotism are bad if it only benefits you and your daughter, materially.

In your instance, the pro bono stance will only enhance your position and reputation. Get back your credibility by being bold and make those who dissent, look foolish and stupid for being against the appointment of an eminently qualified, and capable Nurl Izzah as your Special Advisor pro bono!

As Special Advisors, her responsibilities transcend Economics and Finance. Do not play to the gallery, shut up the polemic from everyone, and let the distractors swallow their own bitterness at her current lesser appointment!

As your Special Advisor, her specific qualifications to justify her lesser appointment as an advisor in Finance and Economics is a non-issue. Nurul is highly educated. Why give her a lesser and narrow role just to appease people when she is qualified and can be, PMX Special Advisor?

I say let her be the Special Advisor to our PMX! Enough Said!
